Alright I 've just decided to crash diet. I want to lose 25 lbs. of fat/water in the next 30 days. My goal is to get ripped and I know for a fact that if I lose about 25 lbs I'll be around 6% BF or less! Weight goal is 170 lbs. @ 5'9.
Off the top of my head this is what I've decided to eat...
Protein: hamburger patties, marinaded chicken breast, tuna, and protein powder (around 200-250 grams/day)
Fats: pretty much anything I get from my proteins.
Carbs: plain lettuce and whatever little bit is in my protein and maybe a small bowl of dry Special K Low Carb in the morning.
1 gal H20/day
I plan on only eating the things listed. This is really my first diet so I'm curious about what everyone thinks about this. I could use some suggestions...
My workout plan looks like this...
Monday: Shoulders
Tuesday:Chest
Wednesday:Legs & Biceps
Thursday:Shoulders
Friday:Chest & Abs
Saturday: Legs & Triceps
Sunday: Back (highest volume)
As you can tell I believe my Chest and Shoulders are my weakest points so I hit them twice a week while I do a crazy back workout once a week(every exercise you can imagine). My legs are alright and of course my arms grow the easiest so ya know...
For cardio I plan on jogging 4-6 miles per day.

I wouldn't say I'd be scrawny at 170, but I won't be big or anything. I guess I would say I'd look like a taller Sean Sherk (with better structure) or a shorter Vitor Belfort. I'd rather be athletic than muscle bound.

you're delusional, guys always think they're going to looked ripped and huge when they lose weight but 99 percent of the time they just look skinny and small.

Naw,
I was around 6% BF at 160 about 3 years ago and I was ripped and athletic looking. I got that ripped just because of wrestling practice and really a loss of apptite. I'd venture to say I've put on at least 10 pounds of muscle since then.

Isn't this the guido looking dude from yesterdays thread ???

hammer weren't your pics in another thread?

Dude, I would put a little size on first, that diet is gonna turn you into a stick.
-
Nah that isn't me.
A long time ago I said it was just to be funny and people actually believed me.

Funny.

Again,
I've seen myself at 160 and I was pleased. I won't say I was big, but I was athletic looking. I wish I could post some old pics, but I don't really have a scanner or digital camera.
Right now I'm soft, abs are visible when I flex them, but I have a lot of fat.
-
And I wasn't a stick or someone with zero density. I wouldn't even say I had a good gym body, but a good mat body.

You will get sick off that diet. Here is my suggestions:
1500 - 2000 cals per day
Carb cycle - 150 grams on workout days, 50 grams on cardio days
protein:
eggs, beef, chicken, tuna, limited cheese, limited lamb, limited nuts, limited whey powder.
carbs:
green veggies, salads, limited grains/starches
Fats:
Olive/flax oil on green veggies and salads
Sugars:
Less than 30 grams per day
Workout:
day 1 - chest/back supersetted in 40 mins
day 2 - 45 mins cardio/abs
day 3 - legs
day 4 - 45 mins cardio/abs
day 5 - shoulders then bis/tris supersetted
-
So suggest some diet changes. That's why I made this thread.

Ok, thank you for the suggestion. I'm really a novice.

Cottage cheese is really good, cheap protein source.

Indeed! Carve a half a mellon and stuff the inside with cottage cheese with bits of pineapple. I also like cottage cheese with pineapple, raisin, and apple slices. My favorite meals when dieting!!

Also, I've read on here you need to eat Red meat if you're growing. White meat if you're cutting.
